Wow, it’s already February 2010 and this is my first blog post. I even missed making a new year’s resolution to post on my blog every day! I am settling now into a new house in Bali and just trying to avoid the stress of starting a new business in a foreign country. I love [...]

I hate saying sorry for not updating my blog, but I honestly have been busy these past few weeks. My mum and auntie visited me here in Bali, so I didn’t have much time to get online. I also had to renew my visa for Bali in Malaysia the week before that. I also now [...]

I have really let this blog go, and I think it is a bit of a shame. It was one of the first websites I started, and I have somehow kept it online. I have now rented a place to stay for the next six months and I just got the internet connected. It is [...]
